Above And Beyond Customs’ 1970 Dodge Challenger

Mecum

When the Mopar Hellcat engine was made available as a crate engine, it wasn’t going to be long until someone fitted one in a classic Challenger. This one? It’s absolutely superb. It couldn’t look any more badass, for a start. Rocking a blacked out Be Cool radiator, and wheels, it looks like something a Bond villain would have as their personal transport. The exterior features new headlamps, a Challenger T/A style hood scoop, and a small rear spoiler. Inside, diamond-patterned tan leather abounds, as well as a pistol grip shifter, touchscreen center console, aftermarket dash gauges, and a custom steering wheel.

Underneath the hood, complete with custom hinges, you’ll find the restomod’s main event. The 6.7 liter Hellcat engine is supercharged and equipped with cold-air intake and high-flow headers, with a final output of 707 horsepower. Linked to the engine is a Tremec six-speed transmission. The suspension has been upgraded with RideTech coilovers, and Wilwood disc brakes marshall the Hellcat into some form of restraint.
